Further detail around the publication of names of employers claiming under the CJRS
02 December 2020
It has been confirmed that, from February 2021, HMRC will publish the names of employers claiming through the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS), for claims that cover periods from December 2020 onwards.
Not only will the name of the employer be published, but also an indication of the value of the claim that they made, within a banded range. The banded ranges have now been published, and they are as follows:
- £1 to £10,000
- £10,001 to £25,000
- £25,001 to £50,000
- £50,001 to 100,000
- £100,001 to £250,000
- £250,001 to £500,000
- £500,001 to £1,000,000
- £1,000,001 to £2,500,000
- £2,500,001 to £5,000,000
- £5,000,001 to £10,000,000
- £10,000,001 to £25,000,000
- £25,000,001 to £50,000,000
- £50,000,001 to £100,000,000
- £100,000,001 and above
There will then be a monthly publication providing details of CJRS claims, as HMRC attempts to deter anybody considering submitting fraudulent claims.
Also from February, employees can check if their employer has made a CJRS claim on their behalf through their online Personal Tax Account.
